The Wide Eye Early Learning Programme is based on the proven Knowledge that children learn best when they are stimulated by multi-sensory experiences. The wide range of products in this learning system offer every opportunity for children to read, look, listen and do. Using this flexible resource, the young child moves forward on a path of discovery through some 80 concepts and skills in stories, songs, videos, activities, games and toys.

Multi-component boxed set.

The Wide Eye adventures take place in the Natterjack Forest, a magical place that´s home to a delightful cast of unusual and endearing animal characters. They teach skills, concepts and life´s little lessons in a gentle, child-friendly way as their wonderful stories unfold.

Little Hoot, the baby owl - along with his best friend Flea - are the child´s learning companions, who muddle along, making new and exciting discoveries at every turn.

Willy Komodo is the forest´s arch mischief-maker, whose hilarious accidents and misdemeanours are the perfect platform for introducing children to the world of colours - and the art of disguise!

The Natterjack toads teach the children all about family and size, 99 the centipede helps the children with numbers, while the magical fireflies make patterns and shapes - and the forest´s wise and watchful guardian, Wide Eye the owl, takes children through the days of the week and other aspects of time. Along with the other animals in the Natterjack Forest, they accompany children on an exciting learning adventure, with extra tools including posters, games, jigsaws, audio and video, to ensure a joyful, comprehensive, interactive pre-school experience - all in one big box!
